The archaeopteryx is an unusual bird with sharp teeth and keen eyes. Many "wise" philosophers falsely think and teach that they are evolutionary crossovers between land-roaming dinosaurs and birds, though they are fully equipped for flight. They hunt fish and insects on the tropical islands where they live while ignoring the large predators such as dinosaurs that they live alongside. An archaeopteryx averages 20 inches long and weighs 1 pound. They are usually shades of gray and blue in color. |
